Tomorrow, Mighty Jaxx will be releasing another epic new figure by Alex Pardee, The BackPack!!! How insane does this figure look!?!

Limited to just 200 pieces, collectors can pick up this 8.5” resin figure tomorrow, October 29th, at the Mighty Jaxx online store for $120.

And here’s the awesome backstory of this exciting new figure: Two lonely treasure hunters, PACK & BACK, lived on opposite ends of the land of YUX, where they embarked separately on many quests in search of ancient artifacts scattered around the vibrant landscapes. However, both PACK & BACK also had their share of limitations by adventuring alone. PACK was obsessed with dirt and studying the different types of soil, deducting where buried treasures may lie, but lacked the strength and skill to dig. BACK, on the other hand, was strong and LOVED digging for treasure. He was obsessed with the dirt, too, but that’s because he liked EATING it!

One day, PACK & BACK crossed paths while scouring the shores of a poisonous bog, and unexpectedly became immediate friends after sharing their mutual love for dirt. It was from that point on, that the new best friends shared their skills and abilities with each other, forming…THE BACKPACK, the greatest treasure hunters in the land of Yux.
